DeSantis needs to speak to his Atty. General about professional priorities. This matter does not need to be whipped up into a huge, expensive showdown. Dissent is still permitted in most situations. This is not even profane.
It’s baseball keep religion and gay out of it
“Florida Attorney General James Uthmeier”. Let’s play ball James.
GOOD! ping.
Hey! If you ain’t into some other chumps rump, you shouldn’t have to wear rainbow 💩. IMO
Rhetorical question. What if a bunch of members of a certain religion of peace rolled out a giant prayer rug covering the outfield at Yankee Stadium and kneeled down facing Mecca with their asses in the air? Or if some wiccans were to dance naked around a fire they set on the pitcher’s mount at Wrigley Field? Betchya the MLB would not only allow it but “request” their employees to participate.🤬🤬
MLB has rules about standardized uniforms.
This is not about “bible verses”,
it is about personalizing uniforms.
Oh oh.
All those Latino players making the Sign of the Cross every at bat are now in trouble.
During the shortened 2020 season, MLB allowed players to display certain social-justice messages, including “Black Lives Matter” (BLM) and “United for Change,” on their uniforms. The policy was adopted after discussions among MLB, the MLB Players Association, and player groups.
Specifically, MLB allowed:
Sleeve patches reading “Black Lives Matter” or “United for Change” on Opening Day (and in some cases during Opening Weekend).
BLM-themed batting-practice shirts.
Wristbands featuring a modified MLB logo with a black silhouette of the batter.
Teams to stencil “BLM” or “United for Change” on the back of the pitcher’s mound during Opening Weekend.
Many players and teams participated, while others chose not to. MLB’s approach was generally to make participation voluntary rather than mandatory.
It’s worth noting that MLB did not go as far as the NBA, which allowed a broader list of social-justice slogans on the backs of jerseys. MLB’s approved uniform messages in 2020 were much more limited.
Thank you, Attorney General James Uthmeier! Thanks very much!!
